I will say that since having them pulled she acts like a young pup again..more playful and active.
It made me cry that she must have been somewhat in pain before and I didn't know it. |
Yeah, I was reading your post about her when my vet called.

We just have pups with funky teeth I guess. The bad part here is that I KNEW it.

I really feel terrible about it. I just thought we would get away with it since we always have...but she is getting older and I do think that it gets worse with age.
I just sent an email to the vet nutritionist asking for feedback on the oral care diets. Cathy had mentioned that...maybe it would help.
